Catch-22: Do we want the police to be in the habit of NOT following orders?

While the image of riot police confronting elderly women is amusing in a sick way, the real beef is not with the cops, but with the elitist pr*cks who ordered them out. To my knowledge, MiniTru has been (un)remarkably curious about this issue. Did the cops go out on their own hook? Did the Secret Service call them in? What was the role of Imeme and his staff in this?

It speaks volumes that this president (or, to be fair, people around him) apparently feels the need to call in riot police against people who are peacefully exercizing their constitutional rights to protest his policies and actions.
